The Seal of Quality WASHINGTON After squeezing the price inflation out of its production estimates, the Commerce Department reported Sunday that the nation's real output in 1953 was three per cent below 1957. It also announced that total production this quarter has reached a record rate well above last summer's pre-reces-sion peak, in terms of today's dollars. The rate apparently is about 454 billion dollars a year.

But when translated into 1957 dollars this rate represents Just about the same output of grjods and services as in mid 1937, when the rate was measured atjunst under 446 billion dollars annually. frrl ITS hAO TO Haggs ft'-'ATA IN'. CJ. N. PSTTM 5w VEST.
